Former FBI director Robert S. Mueller III died on March 20, according to a statement by his family. He was 81.

“With deep sadness, we are sharing the news that Bob passed away,” his family revealed in a statement on Saturday.

Mueller served as the FBI director between September 2001 and September 2013.

Most recently, Mueller served as special counsel in charge of investigating alleged ties between President Donald Trump’s 2016 presidential campaign and Russia.

Mueller in 2019 reached an unambiguous conclusion in the final report on his investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 presidential election: Neither Trump nor any member of his campaign colluded with Russia.

The Justice Department released the special counsel’s report to Congress and the public in April 2019, marking a definitive conclusion to the expansive probe of the president and his associates.

“Although the investigation established that the Russian government perceived it would benefit from a Trump presidency and worked to secure that outcome and that the campaign expected it would benefit electorally from information stolen and released through Russian efforts, the investigation did not establish that members of the Trump Campaign conspired or coordinated with the Russian government,” Mueller’s final report states.

Trump quickly reacted to Mueller’s death on Saturday.

“Robert Mueller just died,” Trump wrote in a Truth Social post on March 21. “Good, I’m glad he’s dead. He can no longer hurt innocent people! President DONALD J. TRUMP.”
